Engineering Logistics CONOP
IV. Logistics System Functional Roles
________________________________________________________________________
While the principles define the values and philosophy and the
characteristics describe the attributes of the future logistics
system, various role definitions are needed to describe how the
system will work to support the units performing the operational
missions. The following are considered the most significant roles
for the future system. They are not intended to be all inclusive.
They are organized in sequential order with core functional roles
(those that apply to all engineering disciplines) first, and then
individual functional roles for aviation, shore and vessel
logistics.
As with the characteristics, the roles are defined functionally. The
roles might be filled by either individuals or organizations, or
both. They are not intended to be constrained to current
organizations. Any of these functional roles could be implemented
in several ways.
